Breastfeeding bites....

Welcome to breastfeeding bites! This blog will hopefully be an outlet for women and moms alike, to get and give advice while hopefully chuckling along the way. Why is it called breastfeeding bites you ask? Well, as a mother of two children I found it hysterical that while pregnant with my first born, when asking moms how breastfeeding was, all of the responses I received were positive. Such as, "it's so bonding, " "there's nothing I'd rather be doing, etc." It's hysterical because I could have thought of a million other things I'd rather be doing! Listen, I nursed both of my children, but I would never tell another soon-to-be-mom that being sleep deprived, having my nipples sucked on for hours until they bled, and did I mention being t-totally exhausted was wonderful... because it wasn't!! But, I have no regrets, because it did get easier and I was feeding my children from my body - which I think is a complete miracle. So, the format of this blog will always start with a thought or question of the day and then I leave it up to you, the reader, to start a discussion. If nothing else, this will be a great way to help each other out, complain about our... dare I say children, or maybe even your spouses.

So, the question of the day is, if you breastfed, did it bite or did you enjoy it? Be honest!!
